As you know, there are a few of these little hideaways over here in New York, too. It makes you smile just to walk along these streets. What is the name of the Hotel?<br /><br />Thank you also for the lovely, close up tutorial on the painting of tulips. Of course, I now wish to find one or two of those Pentel waterbrushes for my own experiments....<br /><br />The baking looks like such fun! <br /><br />I've posted a blog about my recent walk through flower-filled Central Park. Not many tulips to be seen there quite yet. And, can you believe it, we've gotten in the path of another chilly weather front.
